The infrastructure minister says he is impressed with the way the Island came together to tackle yesterday's floods.
David Cretney says the DoI received more than 200 calls over the course of the evening, but help from the emergency services, civil defence and local authorities made the situation managable.
However he does feel drainage systems, particularly near fields and ditches, need to be reassessed.
Mr Cretney thinks a few factors contributed to yesterday's problems:

MiCard users advised to take money out before the end of the year
'Nothing else could have been done' to save some small fish at Clypse Reservoir
Consultation seeks feedback on changes to IOM first time buyer schemes
Yellow weather warning for coastal overtopping
